How to win lane as Diana against Orianna · 55.46% win rate over 1,226 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Diana | Diana wins early trades since Orianna's ball poke alone can't out-damage a well-timed Diana engage at level 1-2. |
| Level 2 | Diana | Diana's combo still out-trades Orianna's ranged poke through levels 3-5 as long as she avoids standing in the ball. |
| Level 3 | Orianna | Orianna's level-6 shockwave combo can catch and burst Diana if she's near the ball, flipping this single phase. |
| Levels 4-5 | Diana | Diana regains the edge post-6 as her damage output recovers faster than Orianna's cooldown-reliant poke. |
| Level 6 | Diana | Diana's Ultimate provides a cleaner gap-close than Orianna's setup-dependent shockwave engage. |
| First item | Diana | Diana's first-item power spike outpaces Orianna's scaling, letting her force winning all-ins. |
| Two+ items | Diana | Diana's late-game burst remains lethal since Orianna has no hard escape from a landed combo. |
Orianna's ranged ball poke can chip you if you stand in it, so play around her ball position and only trade when it's on cooldown or out of position.
